Looking in the Mel Medarda tag & seeing “Mel represents privilege & Piltover & [doesn’t actually say slut but] while Viktor represents Goodness & Virtue” takes & knowing I’m not going to be physically safe on this site when s2 comes out

#can't really do a thread like i did on twitter & don't want to spam the tl but #should figure out some way to move my 'here's why the 'Mel is a manipulative bitch' narrative is #utter fanon & a photocopy of a thousand other fanons of Black female love interests #i still can't believe just like. mel 'medardas don't often get to give back to the world.' medarda #mel 'jayce you don't know war. i do.' medarda #mel 'her mother exiled her & she saves jayce's ass after his mother begs the council not to exile him' medarda #mel 'literally tells her mother who why would she lie to her abt this shit #that she funded hextech to protect people from warmongers like her' medarda #yeah man what a bitch

One thing, however, stuck with her: her body began shifting again.

[eddawrites]

I’ve talked about Mel and Jayce’s default outfits and colour palettes here, but let’s play the fashion police once again and talk about Mel’s dresses some more.

Concretely, let’s talk about this dress:

This dress shows up on two separate occasions: in ep. 4, Mel is wearing it at her fundraiser party, and in ep. 8 upon her mother's arrival in Piltover. It makes another, minor appearance in ep.7 in the scene where she receives the oh so ominous letter from her family. I'll be calling this her "social call" dress.

Now how are these scenes connected? Well, in both these scenes, Mel finds herself in a situation she isn’t really comfortable in. On the party, she's standing apart from everyone else, grumpy, tipping her glass poilitely and faking smiles for her guests, but ultimately refuses to engage with them in any way.

In ep. 8 she's forced to engage with her mother. The woman who exiled her for basically being the nice one in her family of bloodthirsty warlords. Need I say more? In colour theory, black can symbolise sadness or anger. In both of these scenes, Mel expresses sadness and longing (her crush on Jayce, the loss of her brother Kino), but also shows contempt for her betters, especially her mother; cue this small exchange in ep. 4:

284 00:20:23 --> 00:20:24 [Elora] Fundraiser's going well. 285 00:20:26 --> 00:20:27 Your mother would be proud. 286 00:20:28 --> 00:20:29 Hmm… Would she?

But interestingly, the dress in those two scenes isn't completely identical. The dress in ep. 4 has an exposed back, whereas the dress in ep. 8 does not.

So what can this mean? I believe that this small change in ep. 8, along with Mel's facial animation and body language in this scene (and her flashback), is supposed to convey an implicit fear of Noxus and her mother. Because while she finds the party tedious, she is also not afraid to quite literally expose her back to the Piltovans. They pose no danger to her. The Noxians, however, are quite a different story. The choice to cover her back in this scene serves as a nice bit of visual storytelling.

Furthermore, the design and the colour of this dress appears to recall the outfit in her flashback - the dominance of dark colour, the golden details at the centre of her chest, the stripes running down the front of her dress - signalising that perhaps, part of Mel still feels like a little girl in her mother's imposing presence. The grey colour is often used to represent neutrality and balance - meaning that Mel's values at this age haven't fully formed yet; the presence of yellow, on the other hand, tells us that she's an idealist as the colour frequently stands for hope.

But, Edda, what about the scene in ep. 7?

Well, the lazy and rather uninteresting answer is that, judging by the setting and lighting of the scene, this scene and the party in ep. 4 were crafted at the same time and thus can be dismissed as asset reuse (notably, Mel’s balcony scenes with Jayce and Ambessa, respectively, take place on what seems to be a different balcony with the same lighting utilised in both). That way the animators don’t have to redo this environment in a different lighting or adjust Mel’s other dresses for this lighting. Ta-da! You just saved yourself some money.

But let’s ponder the significance of the reappearance of this dress within the story. As is the case with the previous two scenes, the connection between Mel and her family is emphasised in this scene. She receives an ominous letter (accompanied by [ominous music] as the subtitles say) from her clan, most likely announcing her Ambessa’s impending visit to Piltover, perhaps accompanied by some directives.

Furthermore, in the beginning of this scene, we catch Mel in a pensive mood, no doubt pondering the hard choice of having to ask Jayce to betray his principles and arm the city with hextech weapons. The underlying recurrent motif of this particular dress being associated with her discomfort and dejection is thus retained, alongside its more overt connection to the looming presence of the larger Medarda Clan reasserting itself in these three scenes.

Deft's story is amazing! Seeing his face crumple after hugging a crying Keria was heartbreaking, especially after that interview where Keria said that when DRX separated, they all promised to meet each other in a bigger stage...

It really was an incredible and emotional journey ;A; I first started cheering for him in 2016 during his EDG days and the fact that he had to defeat so many of his old teammates at every stage is a knife to the heart;;; Plus in the finals he had to face off against both his closest friend (Keria) and also his high school classmate slash the greatest player of all time (Faker) and the entire thing honestly felt like the plot of an anime come to life 🥺🥺

#if we go allll the way back to qualifiers there was rascal and cuzz from kt #then scout and meiko from edg in quarters #chovy and doran (and score-hyung) from geng in semis #and finally keria from skt for finals #i think in an interview he said it was sometimes tough playing against them #bc he always had the mindset that his teammates were the best in the world #and he couldn't think that way when he faced them bc he had to believe his current teammates were the best #or smth along those lines and ngl that broke my heart a lil ;-; #they're all good kids and i hope they don't give up and find success in future seasons ;-; #[deft voice] because in the end the most important thing is an unbreakable spirit #ok 1 am mel is done emoting sorry for the esporps spam;;;
